Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank
boat one has travelled 700 (rate = 700/unit time) boat two has travelled x rate = x / unit time
boat one then travels x + 400 more and boat two travels 700 + (700+x -400) more when they meet
The time is the same rate x time = distance distance/rate = time equate the distances divided by the respective rates
(700 + x + 400)/700 = ( x + 700 + (700+x-400) )/x
1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000
x^2-300x -700000 = 0 quadratic formula yields x = 1000
One boat travels 700 the other 1000 whe they first meet.....width of river = 700+ 1000 = 1700 m
Let the reduced price be x
If he paid for 6 rounds, he paid 1 round at full price of $19 and 5 rounds at reduced price:
19 + 5x = 59
5x = 59 - 19
5x = 40
x = 40 ÷ 5
x = 8
The reduced price is at $8 per round.
